Deep dives

Managing Internet Addiction

Taking steps to manage internet addiction can involve practical strategies, as demonstrated by using two separate phones. One phone is designated for addictive apps like social media, while the other contains only non-addictive applications such as email and music. This approach provides a clear boundary between healthy and unhealthy online activities. The primary phone is kept on hand for everyday use, allowing for minimal exposure to distractions from the second phone, which is only used for essential tasks.
